Manchester United news: 'There was always a connection,' says Jose Mourinho of his 12-year Old Trafford itch

Jose Mourinho looks unfamiliar in red. Blue has usually been the colour for the new Manchester United manager, whether that has been at Porto, Internazionale or Chelsea – there is no red at Real Madrid either – but as he spoke at length for the first time about his new challenge, the Portuguese did little to dispel the sense that he would always end up in red one day.
“I always had that good feeling (about United), for sure, and I think the fans feel the same,” Mourinho said during an extensive interview with English newspapers in Shanghai.
“I remember playing at Old Trafford and the way to the dugout was always nice. It was never like in other stadiums. There was always a connection.
